I am hearing reports of a power failure in downtown los angeles, particularly the One Wilshire building. One uncorroborated report says that the entire building just switched to generator power several minutes ago. Does anyone in 818 have more information?

All indications are that eqix in 600 west 7th is dark right now, but can't confirm it.

Confirmed. One Wilshire, 818 W. 7th, 600 W. 7th, 600 Wilshire, etc.. are
all on generator at this time. We can see smoke from generators in many
directions, not sure how widespread it is yet.

The Burbank area, 30 miles north of 1 Wilshire had a short power-out at
around 1pm.
Power returned at 1:02pm PT.
Getting confirmation that it is spread further out around the LA area,
at least out to Pasadena.

Here in Sherman Oaks, we had a "hiccup" at 1pm which didn't even last a second. There was a Dept. of Water & Power team working under the street on Ventura, just east of Sepulveda for a couple of hours, but I don't know if what they were doing is related.
